About Enrique

Enrique Villarreal is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. He brings ten years of counseling experience and a focus on helping people manage stress, anxiety, self-doubt, and career change. He draws on his own experience leaving a long career in graphic design and retraining for counseling.

That background gives him a practical view of how work and life affect each other. He uses clear, goal-oriented methods to help clients find more energy, purpose, and direction.

02

How Enrique works

Sessions often include conversations about career and life design alongside strategies for everyday stress and mood. Enrique mixes techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused work with motivational interviewing and narrative ideas. That blend is used to build practical plans and to rewrite the stories that keep people stuck.

He works with concerns that include grief, addiction, anger, depression, compassion fatigue, LGBT issues, and workplace stress. Additional focuses include caregiver strain, control issues, fatherhood concerns, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and multicultural challenges. Enrique prefers straightforward, collaborative sessions where people set short-term goals and track progress.

He aims to help clients leave sessions with one or two things they can try right away. The work is practical, conversational, and tied to the person’s daily life.

Online support options

Practical approaches for online therapy and life change

Enrique uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts so clients can test new ways of thinking and acting, which often helps with anxiety, low mood, and stress.

He also draws on motivational interviewing to support readiness and commitment to change. This approach focuses on the client’s own goals and values and helps build motivation for steps like career shifts, reducing addictive behaviors, or making lifestyle changes.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Enrique will work with each person to mix methods based on their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. He aims to make the plan practical and easy to try between sessions.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is good for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing coaching-style contact between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work and family life.
